Nymphadora Had Her Kittens--Photo Essay

This photo essay's been all day in the making!  But, Nymphadora started having her kittens this morning and not long ago gave birth to what I believe is the last one.

I've taken photos along the way...just sharing our joy. (Although we need no more cats around the house)  They are just so darn cute!!

I took this photo of Nymphadora 2 days ago to show her pregnant belly but hadn't gotten it posted.

Here we have the 1st born....

Here we have kitten #2

Now there are 3! We are loving the colorings.

Here came kitten #4

Protector Malachi...he's not left the box since it all began.  He snips if you try to put your hand down there.  Poor guy got the shakes with every birth not knowing what was going on with his friend Nymphadora.  He did a lot of whining during births, but Nymphadora made no sound at all, just moved around a lot.

aahhhh  kitten #5...and I believe she is done!
